Tech Xplore / Can Europe create AI that we actually understand?
Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly important in nearly every aspect of society, but is completely dominated by the United States and China. Leaving the field to foreign powers and large companies may entail ...
Medical Xpress / Drug-resistant fungi prompt a five-step global plan ahead of WHO's 2026 update
An increasing number of fungi are becoming resistant to medication, posing serious risks for patients with weakened immune systems. That is why 50 researchers from around the world, led by Radboudumc, are calling for action ...
Dialog / Not so dark with Alena Tensor: Math framework could explain dark matter without invisible particles
Alena Tensor is a relatively new mathematical approach that allows for arbitrary curving and straightening of analyzed spacetimes. As it turns out, generalizing this model to all known fields and fully describing matter, ...
Phys.org / This nasal spray rewinds the aging brain, restoring memory and reversing inflammation in preclinical models
Picture this: your brain is a high-performance engine. Over decades, it doesn't just wear down, it also starts to run hot. Tiny "fires" of inflammation smolder deep within the brain's memory center, creating a persistent ...
Phys.org / Search for dark matter intensifies as leading detector reaches milestone
Deep underground in a Canadian mine, a refrigerator nearly 1,000 times colder than outer space has just reached its target temperature—a milestone that brings scientists one step closer to potentially detecting dark matter, ...
Phys.org / Torsion balances set strongest direct limits yet on ultralight dark matter
Dark matter is believed to make up a large fraction of the matter in the universe, yet its true nature remains unknown. Most past experiments have focused on heavier dark matter candidates, while much lighter dark matter, ...
Phys.org / Self-interacting dark matter may solve three cosmic puzzles
A study led by UC Riverside physicist Hai-Bo Yu suggests that a new type of dark matter could explain three astrophysical puzzles across vastly different environments. Published in Physical Review Letters, the study proposes ...
Phys.org / Could dark matter be made of black holes from a different universe?
New research suggests that relic black holes from before the big bang may still shape galaxies today. These black holes could explain dark matter, one of the biggest unsolved questions in cosmology.
Phys.org / Glaciers rapidly declining, with extreme losses in 2025
Earth's glaciers are continuing to shrink at alarming rates, with new international research revealing that 2025 was among the worst years on record for global ice loss. Published in the Climate Chronicles collection of Nature ...
Phys.org / Yellowstone's magma source may be closer than thought, reshaping hazard models
Supereruptions are extremely large volcanic eruptions that eject more than 1,000 cubic kilometers of magma, rock and ash. They are among the most hazardous geological events on Earth and have profound impacts on the environment, ...
Medical Xpress / CRISPR takes a bold leap toward silencing Down syndrome's extra chromosome
Scientists have taken an important step toward a gene therapy that could one day turn off the extra genetic material that causes Down syndrome (DS). Down syndrome is a genetic condition caused by an extra chromosome 21 (and ...
Phys.org / Why the Persian Gulf has more oil and gas than anywhere else on Earth
It has been said that Persian Gulf countries are both blessed and cursed by their vast oil and gas reserves. Geologic forces over millions of years have meant the region is an energy-rich global flash point, as it is now ...
